Okay, let me get this straight: James Dixon's a nut. Franz Joseph's a Kook.

I don't think anyone is saying that Franz Jospeh was "a kook".

What is being pointed out, and correctly so, is that FJ's work had no bearing on the continuity that was, has been, is, and proably will be used in the ongoing production of Star Trek movies and/or television series. And that there have been legitimate reasons for why it happened the way it did.
